I can't log into mod portal

[Silari]

Yeah since my post I'm no longer logged into the mod portal and can't get back in - hitting login just reloads the page with no changes, no errors.

This is on Chrome. FF seems to be working fine.

I was able to login using Firefox.

But that doesn't change that login is broken on the mod portal for some browsers.

Maybe you have an outdated session cookie. Could you please go to mods.factorio.com with Chrome, press F12 -> Application -> Cookies -> https://mods.factorio.com and check if you have two session cookies? for .factorio.com and one for mods.factorio.com? If yes the latter one is causing the issue, so please right-click -> delete the cookie with Domain=mods.factorio.com

I'm also working on a server-side fix for this issue. (and the CSRF session token expired issue)

yeah that seems to have done it. Keep in mind I had just deleted that session cookie a few weeks ago to fix the CSRF issue.

Hi,

Firefox shows that I have 5 cookies for 'factorio.com', but it doesn't let me interact with them. I can't tell anything more than that.
I don't use FF, so if there is an extension that lets me manipulate cookies, I'll get it.

You should be able to right-click -> delete them. Another option is to click on the lock symbol left to the url bar and select "Clear cookies and site data"

I think it was another one. It's my current understanding that there are three session cookies at play here.

session cookie with Domain=factorio.com -> CSRF issue
session cookie with Domain=mods.factorio.com -> unable to login to mod portal issue
session cookie with Domain=.factorio.com -> the "new" session cookie from 1.5 years ago

factorio.com, mods.factorio.com should only set new cookies with name=session and domain=.factorio.com

ah, nope still can't login to mod portal.

Could please also check your session cookies for mods.factorio.com in Firefox?

i had to install it fresh but i only have a single one for .factorio.com there.

thanks for the fix! either that or the cookies all expired there's one left for the 'factorio.com' domain, the remember_token cookie.

factorio.com and mods.factorio.com now tries to delete invalid cookies in certain cases

remember_token is still pending research...
